Cleo

Dogs in all areas, an open fire and a railway next door. I'll watch the trains from the fire.

Bonnie

Steam trains next door, and a garden with a play area. Also, the tables smell like dinner. I'd only look.

The pawrents

A Victorian village pub at Isfield, right beside the Lavender Line, with an open fire, home-made food and a garden with a children's play area. Dogs are welcome in all areas, and there's a step-free ramp. A steam train and a pint fit together.

Only so we can ask you about it. We won't add you to anything, and it's never shown.
